Speaking of GM transmissions, I have a Citation with the 4 speed transmission
(4 cylinder engine).  This might be the same transmission available in the J
car but I'm not sure.  In any case, there is a big gap between third and fourth
gears, and I do most of my driving at about 40 mph which is right in the middle
of the gap - so I find I shift between third and fourth rather frequently.
This is more of a nuisance than a problem, yet it is a situation where the
five speed might do better, or even (ugh) the automatic!
